Description
Two dental nurses pose with two child patients in the dental laboratory at the School of Dentistry at the University of Toronto where Alfred Johns and Myrtle Madge met. Myrtle (right) uses a set of pliers to pull a child's tooth. The other nurse wraps a bandage around a child's head, simulating a procedure after surgery. Bottles with labels sit in rows on shelves in the background. A large book lays open on the table.

Mrs. E.K. Johns, Elimville, Ontario. Dear Mother and Brother - I am in Welcome, came yesterday afternoon. Grandpa is in a terrible state with eczema but he says he is a little better these last few days. Rest all well. Will be home Saturday if possible. Return to Toronto from here Thursday morning. Do you know the nurses? Love to all, Fred.
